What's Included

  • One X10 Photocell Sundowner Mini Controller
  • More Info


    This photocell mini controller looks and works just like the standard Mini Controller. But turn it over and you'll see 4 switches that let you set the photocell to control the devices on Unit Codes 1-4.


    To use the Sundowner, simply set the unit in a window facing outwards, then set the House Code and Unit Codes (1-4 or 5-8) for the device(s) you want to control. Because the Sundowner is activated by light instead of a timer, you'll never have to worry about resetting timers as the seasons change and the days get longer or shorter. Plus, you can adjust the photocell's light sensitivity to have the attached devices switch on/off earlier or later.

    The Sundowner even offers advantages over using computer-based timer solutions. Computer programs that use your geographic location to calculate sunset will send the signal when it determines the sun has set. But on stormy or cloudy days, it may get dark much sooner. Computer programs are unable to react to such changes, and can leave you in the dark. But not the Sundowner. It turns your lights on when it's most important to you . . . when it gets dark outside, no matter what time of day it might be. So throw out those antiquated, hard-to-set timers and order your X10 Photocell Mini Controller today.

    Reviews

    "simplifies outdoor lighting control, adjusting for Daylight savings, etc..." - CLIFF G - AUBURN HILLS, MI
    "Great for when you're away and want lights on after dark." - NATHAN - BRIMFIELD, IL
    "Does not turn on consistently at dusk, or even when it is fully dark outside. Seems overly sensitive to ambient light in room, though pointed at dark night window one foot away. Needs sensitivity adjustment, or a lense or cover for photocell, so that it will not be as sensitive to ambient light within the room." - ROBERT - SACRAMENTO, CA
